Ask Kitch Anything thread

I wasn't a pilot...I did ground work for them...

I did 2 things for my basic day....

one...was true grunt work...my first summer I was worked for an airplane pilot...

basically worked his ground work for him...filled his fuel and his "hopper" full of chemicals...while he was gone..normaly about 15 to 20 mins I'd do his map work and mix his next batch of chemicals. Some times do a drive to a diffrent off site airport to do the same job.

the 2nd year...worked for an helicopter pilot...but these are cool..I drove a tanker chemical truck from location to location constantly trying to stay infront of a helicopter.

this truck was big...the helicpter would land on top of the truck I would need to fuel them up and load them up with chemicals...also need to do the maps to tell them the next field to go to....was a race all day long..

these pilots made serious $$$$ and would tip you in dinner and beer for the night.sometimes lucnh or breakfest if it rained...best tip would be laundry service as I was so tired to want to sit in a laudry mat on days it rained

the airplaine pilots didn't really tip as much...

Kitch... any idea if there is a site, where you can look up people, to see if they have an arrest warrant out for them?....

preferably a free site?

I thought there was one, someplace, but cant seem to find it....

I think you need to call the county and ask for Court Administration

Warrants Office (651)266-9320

Open 24-hours, 7-days a week, 365 days a year

The Warrant Office is responsible for confirmation of active arrest warrants issued by the court. The office confirms warrant information to other law enforcement agencies via teletype computers. The Warrant Office is responsible for entering active Ramsey County warrants into the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension's state computer system. This is done so that other law enforcement agencies throughout the state and nation can have access to this information.

If you go to the court house they have computers you can use to looks stuff like that up. I think it's on MNCIS (the court system's computer) I know Dakota County has a computer but I'm not sure exactly what information you can get I think it will show anything that is public record. Are warrents public record?

If you find an address for someone, but their phone number comes up as "unlisted", is there an easy way to get the phone number?

I like to spend $ won in hunts on hunting stuff...so I'm thinking of getting a phone with web browsing. It's gotta have:

ability to send pictures in text messages

qwerty keyboard

I kinda think I might like the Windows Mobile format as opposed to whatever the Blackberry has, but I'm a bit more open on that

I checked out the iphone (which I thought I would get), but you can't send pics in text msgs, and I'm not so sure I like the touchpad for keyboard entry (especially w/fingernails!). I think I prefer a button-type keyboard.

Can anyone that has web-browsing, email, etc on their phone....share what you like or don't like about the particular model you have? I'm going to try some inet research on my own, too.

I'm currently w/T-Mobile and might like to stay with them (not currently in a contract, though)

Thanks! :litesmile:

I had the T-Mobile dash and loved it phone was easy to use never had crash problems and good batt. life on it but it was nice for the net!!

it is windows based so that another thing you said you where looking for comes with mem. card and can send pics in text msgs. I use to post on ableminds with mine all the time!! well I was on the road And I would get one back in a heart beat!! by far one of the best sounding and sig phnoes I have ever had!!!!

heres a link to a place that sells them so you can see what they look like and see specs. on them!!

The new blackberrys are cool, I have maps, GPS, camera, e-mail and web browsing on my phone. And I have t-mobile, too, so it's only about 200 dollars.

I spent lots of bucks this weekend on hunting stuff - but it was the kind that goes "Bang". Purchasing needed upgrades for an old shotgun ain't cheap.

Yeah, I was reading about it the other day. Funny, the peeps at T-Mobile didn't say a damn word about it to me. They know that I'm looking for a phone that does everything and more...you think they woulda mentioned it....Sheesh! :eyeroll:

Anyway, you can pre-order the phone and I don't have a current contract with them...so I can prolly get it for the "$179" price...or thereabouts...

Dear Kitch,

Can a person see the ballot before election day? I want to be able to vote on all items this year rather than just the presidential race.

I found mine by doing a Google Search - just type in your county, state names and something like "Sample Ballot" and a few links pop up - the Secretary of the State should have links to everything as well

Our school district map is so screwy because of the new high school being built, and the fact that my little corner of Woodbury is actually in the Oakdale School Disctrict

Here's the entire list for Washington County:

Duh... 70% of people don't vote based on issues anyway. Just vote for the party your parents did. Maybe you can relate to a soccer mom who has bad grammar skills. Maybe you relate to guys from Scranton. Maybe you are HUGELY into ICP, in which case I suggest you vote for Nick. He is also really cute, which is another reason you could base your opinion on. Just look at how many people are registering to vote only for the dream that their next VP would pose for Hustler Magazine.

 Forget the facts. Fox News has been doing it for years.

I found a colorful character that would be an ideal President...but I can't find his name on my ballot.

Now who wouldn't vote for THIS guy?

I'm so cute, that I can run the government.

Well I thought of voting for you Zephy but since your endorsing Nick I'll vote for him instead.

Kitch and Co:

I'm trying to create a FREE message forum for our town home organization.

Last night I quickly threw together a skeleton for the forum - I like the phpbb format as-is, but I want to do it advertising-free with no banner ads. What domain servers can do free forum hosting without annoying pop-ups or banner ads?

Townhome forum at Forumsland.com

I don't think this group will get too big for basic services - there just isn't enough people living here to overload content limits.

Here's one free developer I found: http://www.webringamerica.com/ - do you think they would work?
